007'S SEAN CONNERY'S THUMB POKE BY JKD SIFU MIKE GOLDBERG

JKD Sifu Mike Goldberg of Fort Worth learned this nasty "thumb poke" to the armpit trick a long time ago from his Green Beret Father Patrick Joseph Corcoran who served in the Korean War and decided to share the experience with his best friend and fellow JKD Sifu Raymond Bray of. The armpit area is considered a vital area because of the amount of blood that passes through it. When Ray wrapped his big arms around Sifu Mike applying the frontal bear hug Sifu Mike executed the thumb poke DEEP into the armpit area which forced Sifu Bray back shifting his weight just far enough to make it easier for Sifu Goldberg to postion his leg behind Sifu Bray's leg for a takedown to give him time to run away!!! For those of you OLD enough, you might have seen the movie called "The Presidio" with 007's Sean Connery using this thumb poke in a barroom fight. Like myself, Mr. Connery had studied Kyokushinkai Karate and I remember breaking boards with this technique when I was younger. It's a very handy tool to have in your self defense tool belt!!!
